Episode 1 generated a lot of discussion on the mysterious, and still unknown, body dismemberer. Now episode 2 leaves us wondering who it was that kidnapped Princess Peach. (AGAIN?!) So who do you think it may be? JGH27 said in another thread that Bowser seems kinda obvious and yeah, it does.

I can't help but think it would be a character of big stature - lile Gannondorf or Dedede, but I doubt it would be one of them. Maybe Samus or Wolf, since they're both mercanary-type characters.

Bowser just doesn't seem right to me. Don't know why, just not feeling a Bowser vibe here. Considering what happened during the episode, Zelda or Link seem plausible, but I don't think they themselves were the kidnappers. If they were even involved. I think a yet to be introduced character was responsible, like Wolf. And of course, I think its pretty likely that one of the big three crime lords is involved.

I also just want to say the I think Dedede will show up before Bowser or Ganon. As far as in game appearances go, he's the least threatening, and we all know that the scarier guys are reserved for last.

I'm thinkin whoever the Body Dismember is hired a character like Wolf or something to kidnap her, and I can see the motive to being that they will accuse Bowser and he will be taken out, leaving only 2 Gang Bosses left.

I think maybe it's Snake......if Peach really was kidnapped and hasn't run off on her own like surge has suggested, it would have to be someone with enough stealth and expertise to get passed all of the guards that one would have to think are placed around the castle.

Okay, we're introduced to Zelda right? And she drinks... woot. Maybe because she's not happy with her land being a part of the Mushroom Kingdom she's drank herself into hysterics. Possibly even mentally suffered for the humiliation. Zelda assumes (either consciously or unconsciously) the role of Sheik and kidnaps Peach. There adding in the duel personality or schizophrenia of Zelda.

Somewhat related to this theory, although this could become it's own thing, is the prospect that Sheik or Snake are hired guns for a Hyrule Liberation front. Sheik and Snake could easily steal the Princess, and this would even allow for characters like Samus and Wolf to be introduced. Where I go with this idea, I have no idea... so...

This theory allows for some interesting character introductions/roles in the series. But then again I could be completely wrong and Donkey Kong/Bowser have stolen her. (Donkey Kong for the second time, Bowser for the WTFNOTAGAIN time)

Though specifically with the old-school notion of "It's Bowser again!", I tend to doubt it... Donkey would make a fresher adversary. Unless of course we *were* going with Bowser as the kidnapper... then DK would make the most unlikely partner ever and epic story goes on from here.

I wouldn't count out the notion of DK working for/with bowser. After all the Ice climbers work for Wario, which seems very unlikely in my book. Also in your spoilerboxed theory, you said mario was kidnapped.

That sounds like an awesome theory.
